REES 265 Dostoevsky in a Global Context

An examination of Fyodor Dostoevsky's major novels and journalism in the context of his transnational legacy. We examine problems of reading Dostoevsky in the 21st century stemming from his Christianity, politics, and contribution to the global art of the novel. Of special consideration will be the texts and reception of two influential novels, Notes from the Dead House and The Brothers Karamazov. Key theoretical approaches to his work will be discussed. All readings in English. [H, V, GM2, W]
